Friends,

I am using UNSTRING to split a CSV file.

WS-USER-REC : 111116862,01,101010101010

UNSTRING WS-USER-REC DELIMITED BY WS-COMMA
INTO
WS-CONTRACT-ID ( X(12))
WS-SET (X(02))
WS-C-NUMBER (X(12))

But most of the time WS-CONTRACT-ID length is 9 characters in the CSV file sometimes even in the complete CSV file.Hence WS-CONTRACT-ID is taking WS-SET values also even if there is a comma in between. i.e. it is looking for the values for full 12 characters evenif there is comma in between.

The WS-CONTRACT-ID is appearing as 111116862 01 instead of 111116862.

Please suggest how to overcome this problem..

Please let me know if you need some more details about this..

Vishwakiran,

Try this

Code:

01 WS-STR                PIC X(80) VALUE
   '123456789,01,101010101010'.         
                                       
01 WS-CONTRACT-ID        PIC X(12).     
01 WS-SET                PIC X(02).     
01 WS-C-NUMBER           PIC X(12).     


UNSTRING WS-STR DELIMITED BY ','   
    INTO WS-CONTRACT-ID           
        ,WS-SET                   
        ,WS-C-NUMBER               
                                   


Hope this helps...

Cheers

Kolusu
